Darryl and Harold were in a mental institution. The
place had an unusual annual contest, picking two of the best patients and
giving them two questions. If they got them correct, they were deemed cured
and free to go.
Darryl was called into the doctor s office first and asked if
he understood that he'd be free if he answered the questions correctly.
Darryl said "Yes" and the doctor proceeded.
"Darryl, what would happen if I
poked out one of your eyes?"
Darryl said, "I'd be half blind."
"That's correct. What if I poked
out both eyes?"
"I'd be completely blind."
The doctor stood up, shook Darryl's hand, and told him he was free to go.
On Darryl's way out, as the doctor filled out the paperwork, Darryl mentioned
the exam to Harold, who was seated in the waiting room. He told him what
questions were going to be asked and gave him the answers.
So Harold went into the doctor's office when he was called. The
doctor went through the
formalities and then asked, "What would happen if I cut off one of your
ears?"
Remembering what Darryl had told him, he answered, "I'd be half
blind."
The doctor looked a little puzzled, but went on. "What if I cut off
the other ear?"
"I'd be completely blind," Harold answered."
"Harold, can you explain how you'd be blind?"
"My hat would fall down over my eyes."
The doctor stood up, shook Harold's hand, and told him he was free to go.
